After the success last year of UKCS's 6v6 public tournament, UKCS decided to run a 2 day [url=http://ukcs.net/communitycup/]Highlander knockout cup.[/url]
4 Public based communities were invited to enter teams, with the one proviso being that players higher than division 5 in ETF2L or equivalent were not eligible.This lead to 2 UKCS teams being entered, 2 teams from GTFO gaming, 2 teams from racked.eu, and one each from the Hampshire Heavies and Lokalen communities.
The cup kicks off tonight, with 4 games being played as part of the first round.
